उत्तर
When a piece of solid stone is immersed inside the measuring cylinder. The water level rises up.

On removal of solid stone, the water level in the measuring cylinder falls down back to the mark ‘A’.

Hence, It shows that the stone occupies the space of the water and thus pushes the water level up. This experiment or procedure also proves that all solids occupy space.
